> Let's go ahead and apply your logic to Pokemon Go: "It's an iPhone game named Pokemon Go".

You're missing some context here, as to someone who plays iPhone games the word 'Run' suggests that the game is an infinite runner[1]. So "an iPhone game named Super Mario Run" does imply more information (that it's probably an infinite runner, which is not quite correct, but reasonably close) than your Pokemon Go version.

[1] see Sonic Runners, Rayman Run, etc.
